Photosynthesis

Question 1

ADP

Answer 1

Stands for adenosine diphosphate which is a molecule involve in transferring and providing cells with energy

Question 2

ATP

Answer 2

Stands for Adenosine Triphosphate which is a molecule that provides energy in various biochemical processes in the body.

Question 3

Autotrophs

Answer 3

Organisms that can synthesis their own food directly from carbon dioxide and water using energy

Question 4

Hererotrophs

Answer 4

Organisms that cannot synthesis their own food and must consume other organisms to obtain energy.

Question 5

Carbon Dioxide (co2)

Answer 5

Its a chemical compound that is composed of one carbon and 2 oxygen atoms.

Question 6

Chemical equation of photosynthesis

Answer 6

6co2+6h2o ->C6H12O6+6O2.

Question 7

Chlorophyll
